Adding Silverlight Content to Access 2010’s Web Browser Control

The Microsoft Access team posted Power Tip: Integrate Silverlight into an Access database (Part II) on 12/17/2010:

As you may remember from their previous post, software developer Derrick VanArnam and DBA Russell Fox have developed a way to integrate Silverlight into an Access database by using the Web Browser Control that is included with Access 2010. Since that first post, they have been working on ways to improve the coding experience to make the Silverlight/Access integration faster and easier, and they now have a new version of their free sample database available for download. Check out their post here!

Integrate Silverlight into an Access Project with a Web Browser Control

Chris Downs posted Power Tip: Integrate Silverlight into an Access database on 11/17/2010:

Derrick VanArnam and Russell Fox have developed a sample Access database that shows how to integrate Silverlight into an Access database. The sample demonstrates interoperability between Access and a Silverlight Treeview control, but you can also use other Silverlight controls, such as the Treeview, DataGrid, Video, and charts.

The basic method is to place an Access Web Browser Control onto a form, and then load an HTML page containing the Silverlight control. Read the full post and download the sample!
